Saiid

I look at my phone, It's a number that I haven't saved or even called me before. I bit my lower lip because I have a feeling It's someone I know. I look up at Rasha, she looks at me. ''Baby, get into the car. I will just answer this call.'' I say. She nods and walks towards the car. When I see her get into the car I answer the call.

''Hello? Who is this?'' I say with a confused tone. I hear someone chuckle, is someone pranking me?

''Don't act like you don't know who this is.'' Why did I know it would be her? I just had that feeling inside me.

''Maria? Why are you calling me?'' I sighed, I wasn't annoyed but I was just confused. Why would she call me? How did she get my number?

''Can you meet up? I have to tell you something.'' She says. I turn around and look at Rasha sitting in the car, when she sees me looking at her she looks down. I couldn't say no. I know, it's messed up. But the thing is I still care about Maria. I loved her and we went through very much together. So that's why I couldn't say no.

''Where?''

As I'm driving Rasha home I was thinking about what Maria wanted to tell me, why is she calling me so suddenly? What is she trying to do? ''Saiid!'' I hear Rasha yell, I look at her with my brows wrinkled. ''I've been calling your name fifteen times now, gosh what's wrong with you?'' She says annoyed. I take her hand and kiss it, ''I'm sorry baby.'' I curl my fingers into her.

''Did something happened? You seem so off? Who called you?'' She says with a soft tone. I look at the driveway, I can't tell her Maria called me and I'm going to meet her now. She will go crazy and suspicious something. But I can't lie to her too. We just got together and I'm already messing everything up with my lies. ''Just Adnan, he hurt himself at the gym and he wanted me to pick him up from the hospital.'' God, here goes the lies.

She nods and smiles, ''I knew he was clumsy.'' She laughs. I feel so bad, why am I lying to the one I love the most. I stop all this as soon as possible.

A few minutes later we arrive in Rasha's neighborhood. ''We're here.'' I speak, she sighs loudly. ''I know, I don't want to leave you.'' She leans closer to me and rests her head on my shoulder. I kiss her head as she chuckles. Then she unbelts her belt and looks at me, ''Tell Adnan I said get well soon.''

I smile and nod, ''I will.'' Before she gets out of the car she kisses my cheek and wave outside the car. I see her walking fast home. ''I don't deserve her.'' I whisper to myself.

Rasha

As I walk home I smile from ear to ear, I just love spending time with Saiid. He makes me feel so wanted and loved. I've never felt this way in life, not even my family has made me feel like this. I know he loves, and I know he knows I love him too. I hope this stays like this forever. I just love him so much and I can't even see my life without him.

I slowly walk into my house, I take off my shoes and walk into the kitchen. I see my father and mother drinking tea in the kitchen while they look like they are waiting for someone. ''Salam.'' I greet them. My dad looks up and takes off his glasses, ''Where have you been?''

I gulp before I answer, ''With my friends, we were studying in the library'' I lie, what else should I say? That I was with my boyfriend who is my teacher? They would burn me to death. My dad sighs, ''Don't be late again, go to your room and finish your studies.''

I nod and before I walk up to my room I look at my mom who's looking at me with disgust. She hates everything about me. I walk into my room and lie on bed, then I start daydreaming about Saiid. My prince charming.

Saiid

I walk into the Café Maria asked me to meet her. I look around to search for her, then I see someone smiling at me. Maria. I slowly walk up to her and sit in front of her. ''You came.'' She says. I look down at the table and see a Latte Americano, ''I bought your favorite coffee, you used to drink this when we bought coffee. I miss those days.''

I sigh loudly, ''I don't like it anymore, It's too bitter for me.'' I lied. She nods as a sign that she understood. ''So you called me for what?'' I look at her. She looks up at me and clears her throat. ''My husband, he died two years ago from cancer.'' She spat.

I raise my brows and my jaw dropped, I didn't know how to react and what to even say. I look down at my hands, then at her again. ''I'm sorry for your loss, you shouldn't bear with something like that alone.''

She lets a humorless chuckle, ''It was something I wished for. I wanted him to die.'' She said it with a painful tone. She maybe didn't have a great time with him? ''Did he do something to you?'' She looks down, then I notice tears running down her cheeks. ''He did everything he shouldn't have done to me. He hit me, he cussed at me, he raped me and he even almost choked me to death.'' She stammers.

As she says all of it I felt how the blood inside of my started to boil, I couldn't believe what she saying. All of it made me crazy. ''I regretted everything, I wish I hadn't left you. I wish I saw what I had in front of me, you treated me like a princess Saiid.'' She was crying harder. God, don't do this now Maria. ''I want you back Saiid. Please, can we start again? I know It might sou-''

''Maria, I'm in love with someone else already.'' I cut her off. She zones out for a few seconds, then she looks down. I hear scoff for herself, ''Rasha right?'' What the, how did she know? ''I wanted to talk to you in your classroom but I didn't want to disturb you two hugging lovingly.''

My heart was skipping a few beats and I felt breathless. What if a few more people saw us? God, everything is going so wrong. ''Don't worry, nobody saw you. It was just me, and I won't tell anyone. But Saiid, why her? She's your student. She's too young for you. Of all women, why did you choose her?''

Not again with this bullshit. I don't have time for these questions again. ''Listen to me Maria. I love Rasha, she makes me feel alive. I'm in love with her, and I won't change that. No one can change that. She's the woman I want and need.'' I stopped for a breath.

''Maria, I'm sorry for what you been through and all that. But, you choose to leave me even if I begged you to stay. I can't do much for you then only be there for you as a friend.'' I said with confidence, and I said what I felt. She nods and wipes away her tears, I see her stand up and wear her coat. ''I understand, but I will still do everything to get you again. Because I believe we are soulmates.''

next day

As I'm walking into the school I see my friends and Tariq and his friends stand in front of some lockers. I walk up to them with a smile on my face, ''Hi guys!'' I exclaim. They all look at me and greet me, ''There's our princess!'' Tariq hugs me and I hug back. ''When will you ever stop calling me that?'' I laugh. He pats my head, ''Never.''

While we are waiting for our classes to begin I get a message from Mr.Bashar,

''Uhh guys, I'll see you later.'' I wink at the girls and rush away to Mr.Bashar's classroom. I knock three or two times before he opens it, ''What do you want?'' He teases. I fold my arms, ''Oh, I'm sorry. I thought my boyfriend was here. I guess he wasn't, bye!'' I was about to walk away when he dragged me inside by pulling my wrist. He closed the door after him and pushed me against the wall. He pinned my arms to the wall and hovered his lips over mine.

My heart beats so fast that my blood can't even keep up with it. I feel the tingle inside of my body. ''I think you found him.'' He whispers. I laugh, then I shake my head, ''I don't think so. My boyfriend, he's hot, funny, loving and he gives the best kisses.'' I smile. ''I don't think you have that.'' I continue.

He leans much closer, at any moment now his lips will be touching mine. ''Is that so?'' He asks with a husky voice. I nod, ''That is very so.'' I whisper this time. He chuckles, ''Then let me help you find him.'' Was the last thing he said before he pressed his lips on mine. We were moving our lips roughly against each other as we start to wrap our arms around each other.

This time I felt like I needed this more than the other times, I wanted him to kiss me like there's no tomorrow. A few seconds we pull away to catch our breath, ''So did you find him yet?'' I laugh loudly and rest my head close to his neck, ''I clearly did.''

We look at each other and smile. ''I missed you baby.'' He kisses the tip of the nose. ''I'm sure you did, anyway I have to go to my class.'' I try to make him let me go off me but he doesn't. ''Babe, I'm serious.'' I groan.

''Say you miss me back.'' He states. I sigh, then I fake smile. ''I missed you. Okay bye!'' I pushed him and rushed out.

As I was walking to class I was laughing to myself, I really loved everything about us. I don't who I would be without him. ''Rasha!'' I stopped and turned around to see who was calling me. Ms.Adams was standing me, she was holding a few binders. She flips her hair and takes a few steps closer to me.

''Let's talk.''

A fast update!🥰
